Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 20 Fen - Guangxu (Made in Taiwan) ND (1894) coin is that it was minted during a time of political turmoil in China. The Guangxu Emperor ruled China from 1875 to 1908, and during his reign, the country was plagued by corruption, political instability, and foreign intervention. Despite these challenges, the Guangxu Emperor made efforts to modernize China and introduce new economic reforms, including the minting of this coin. The coin's silver content and unique design make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in Chinese history.
